I started buying Lenovo laptops after Toshiba's let me down so much.... Lenovo has turned out to be just as bad. The most reliable Windows laptop I've bought in the last six years or so is actually a Dell netbook with the tiniest SSD.... it can't do much with its lack of power and storage, but it takes a constant beating from those who use it (faculty sign it out to take while they're travelling) and is still going well. It's about four years old.
